Ackshually, the blue in Chad's flag is a shade darker.

6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? in c/games@lemmy.world

Just a small update, I made the switch to EndeavourOS /w XFCE4 about two weeks ago and so far everything works perfectly. Even modern games on Steam w/ Nvidia graphics card. Thanks again.

End of 10 is a campaign to move people over to Linux with Windows 10 support ending in c/linux@programming.dev

Switched from W10 to EndeavourOS about two weeks ago. Happy so far. The full-screen W11 ads/W10 deprecation warnings were what pushed me over the edge.

Best YouTube Alternatives! - Invidious, Newpipe, Freetube, LBRY, PeerTube in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk

I liked freetube very much because I could export all subs to newpipe on my android. Adblock is a bit iffy on android browsers in my opinion, and newpipe works and looks a treat. Then youtube broke freetube. After about a week of it not working I stopped looking for an update and went back to browser+adblock on pc.

Sorry, freetube devs. Still appreciate you <3

Microsoft's getting cold feet and is now 'pledging' its new commitment to Europe in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk

[–] WasteWizard@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah... no. Commitment ends at the tip of a pen signing a new executive order.

U.S. declares military zone around El Paso, allowing soldiers to arrest migrants in c/news@lemmy.world

Never forget this: Everyone participating and 'just following orders' is also responsible, from the highest bureaucrats and generals to the lowest public servants and soldiers. Couldn't have a death camp without everyone greenlighting and then Private John Doe following orders and building it.

Good fucking luck, USA. And may god have mercy on your souls.

They don't need them anymore. Every future election will be fixed.

What's their beef with Syria still?

Also straight, healthy and neurotypical.

Musk wants to leave politics because he’s tired of ‘attacks’ from the left: report in c/nottheonion@lemmy.world

[–] WasteWizard@lemmy.world 48 points 2 months ago (3 children)

No, he just wants back into the background and do shady things in obscurity again. We all know the rich can't and won't stop meddling.

ICE deports Venezuelan teen despite reportedly knowing he was not a target in c/politics@lemmy.world

The US is not a member of the Rome Statute, nor the ICJ. They've openly threatened those institutions with sanctions if they go after them or their citizens.

The ICJ/ICC are only for the powerless, fallen, disgraced. The big players just don't follow those institutions' orders, at best cherry-pick what to follow.

I'd say I'm well aware how this works.
